LP LDL
 

A true breakthrough in innovative health product development, OptiBiotix’s Lactobacillus plantarumLPLDL® is a next-generation probiotic that aids elements of cardiovascular and wellbeing.

What makes this product so distinctive is its ability to improve blood lipid profiles and blood pressure using probiotic research, a holistic, non-pharmaceutical solution, to transform the way physical health is approached. Whereas high levels of cholesterol are commonly addressed with statins, which are drugs known to be associated with a host of undesirable side effects, LPLDL® offers a natural, scientifically founded alternative with no known side effects.

LPLDL® has been shown in randomised, placebo controlled human intervention studies to deliver tangible health benefits, reducing cardiovascular risk factors and supporting overall heart wellness. These include:

• Lower total cholesterol by up to 36.7%
• Lower LDL cholesterol by up to 13.9%
• Increase HDL cholesterol by up to 4.5%
• Lower systolic blood pressure by 5.1%
• Be completely safe and well tolerated

*Independent studies have found LPLDL® to be safe and well tolerated by human subjects.

CholBiome
 

Transforming the way cardiovascular health is approached, CholBiome® is a unique food supplement that combines three natural, science-backed ingredients to help maintain healthy levels of cholesterol.

A holistic alternative to pharmaceutical treatments, this innovative product helps to reduce blood pressure and cholesterol to promote overall heart wellness.

LPGOS

LPGOS is a galactooligosaccharide (GOS) produced by the OptiBiotix LPLDL® strain (LPGOS®)

OptiBiotix believes this creates opportunities to use LPGOS in a wide range of food products and applications to help reduce cardiovascular risk factors and improve health.

Rigorous independent tests have demonstrated that LPGOS® is:

• Suitable for a wide range of food products
• Heat Resistant
• Stable during processing

SweetBiotix

SweetBiotix® are patented, natural, low calorie alternatives to sugar.

Made from natural prebiotic fibres SweetBiotix® are calorie free with a clean flavour profile. Products under development include both intense prebiotic sweeteners and bulk sugar substitutes, suitable for wide range of sugar replacement applications in food and beverages.

An innovative dietary fibre concept, SweetBiotix® have the potential to address public health concerns over the impact of sugar on obesity, with the prospect of replacing ‘unhealthy’ sugars in existing products with low calorie, healthy non-digestible fibres.

How sweet is SweetBiotix®?

The Flavour and Sensory Science Centre at the University of Reading carried out a recent study. Six SweetBiotix® customised oligosaccharides developed from high intensity sweeteners were compared to sucrose. The study used a trained expert panel of ten experienced panellists and demonstrated:

• The customised oligosaccharides showed sweetness of between 140X and 223X that of sucrose at equivalent concentrations
• Customised oligosaccharides derived from Stevia showed a large reduction in bitterness whilst not affecting its sweetness

The global sweetener market, currently dominated by sugar, is forecast to reach $112bn by 2022 (Mordor Intelligence, 2017).
